I haven't tried this myself, so can't vouch for its effectiveness.

I read somewhere this wasn't very effective, can't remember where though. Do you use USB with you MM?
I used to stream direct from my NAS (Synology DS213J) via USB, but now I have JRiver running on dedicated Windows machine over ethernet.
TBH the main motivation for switching from USB wasn't SQ: it was the clunky NAS control point, which I grew to hate.
JRiver is a fantastic way of organizing music, especially if, like me, you have a large classical collection with complex tagging. And the JRemote iPad app is just stunning.
